Subpar Experience
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a joke! I was super disappointed with the sound of these. I still own and emphatically use the Mx3's. The 6's are pathetic compared to the sound and build quality of the former headphones. I really wanted to like the 6's, but if you have a discriminate taste and want your music to sound a certain way, these may not be the ones for you. I had other people test the 6's to see if it was just me and they agreed the 3's and 4's are better. Even after messing with the EQ the 6th did not compare. Unless you just want something to listen to music with, I would skip this version.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood but still waiting more
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had hoped for more from Sony's latest offerings. They leave much to be desired. As for my preferences, I lean towards the competition this year. "I had hoped for more from Sony's latest offerings. They leave much to be desired.

Power and battery issue.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Still getting use to the power and battery settings. Seems like the sensor doesn't work to turn them off when placed in the case. Also irritating is I can't listen and charge. I have had to use my old buds for important meetings that don't work great due to this. However everything else so far is great.
